billtodd Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) Ah - yet more fun and games. I just finished installing the slipstreamed system withholding all the WMP-related updates (except WMP9's MPSetup.exe itself). When installing the WMP-related updates individually afterward, 969878 failed saying it required that WMP9 be installed and 975025 failed saying it required that WMP (no specific version) be installed. The other 10 or so WMP-related patches installed fine (including the original codecs that I downloaded from Microsoft rather than use the DRM-'enhanced' version in 891122).Perhaps I shouldn't have included MPSetup.exe in the slipstream after all. I remember a claim that if you wanted the WMP9 encoder to work well you should first install the WMP7.1 encoder before upgrading to WMP9, so deferring the upgrade might have that advantage as well.Just to see what would happen I executed MPSetup.exe manually (the result seemed to retain all the setting changes that I had made earlier) and then attempted to re-apply the two failed updates, but the result was the same: whatever was lacking didn't get cleared up by the reinstall. Unfortunately, there's no obvious way to uninstall the codec package to see whether that may have affected anything (**** - I *know* I should have taken an early image of the system just in case).WMP certainly is a marvel...- bill(Oh, my - about the most innocuous '4-letter word' in my vocabulary seems to have been censored. I wouldn't want anyone to think it was something worse.) Edited October 18, 2009 by billtodd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billtodd Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Well, 'tain't HFSLIP's fault that 969878 and 975025 wouldn't install. After taking MPSetup.exe out of the slipstream and still having the problem, I went back to my SP1 disk and reinstalled everything by hand - and those two patches still wouldn't install (Google couldn't find any information about this, but both have only been out for less than a week and not that many people are still using Win2K - assuming it's peculiar to Win2K). I even tried installing the 891122 DRM patch just to see if that would make them work - but no...If HFSLIP can save me 70-odd manual installs I won't complain about having to install a dozen or so WMP patches by hand (plus one DX9 patch). Slipstreaming the DX9c installation also eliminates 4 event log Windows File Protection failures (involving ks*.ax) that have always bothered me even though they never seemed to cause any problems.- bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyp Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) That's odd. Without WMP9, I was able to slipstream the 969878 and 975025 and directx9 and the rest of the hotfixes using beta R. In fact, the only missing update I got was the Malicious Software Removal Tool because I didn't include it. Weird. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?edit. With WMP9, WU reports that I missed the sofware removal tool and 973540, which ironically I forgot to include. Others installed fine. I must be doing something wrong then. Oh well. Let's keep this thread back on topic - windows updates. If you are running into a particular problem, please either report it in the beta thread or in a new thread. This is not a blog. Thanks in advance for understanding. Edited October 19, 2009 by tommyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommyp Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Wow! That was fast. FDV, looks like we got a taker, and we have German precision to make it perfect too. Thanks for stepping up to the plate Mimo! FDV, can you link to this list? Or host it for Mimo? Either way is fine with me. I'll update the hfslip site so that it points to the right place for XP lists once it's all settled. Sorry muppet , but a one time update of a list doesn't cut it.
